I went up to the Uintas for the first time this year yesterday upon reading the news that the Mirror Lake Highway was now open. Trial Lake was the destination, it is one of the easiest lakes to get to while the snow is still melting. I did have to carry my tube over a patch of snow that hasn’t yet melted, but it was well worth it, The Unitas rarely disappoint.
I forgot my camera, so my blackberry had to be used as a substitute. The final count of the day was 38, fish ranged from 6 inchers fresh from the hatchery truck to a few that were 14 inches long. The fishing was fast, everyone on the lake seemed to be catching fish, including people from shore. Just about anything will work up there, I used a several different leech patterns of all different colors.
